2004 Vauxhall Astravan 1.7L Diesel · RE54 ATZ

The current roadworthiness status of this vehicle is uncertain as the most recent MOT record from September 26, 2022, resulted in a failure. There has been no recorded successful test for nearly four years relative to the current date of August 7, 2026. The maintenance trend appears stagnant or declining, as the vehicle has not been certified as roadworthy since September 2021. The mileage is consistent with the vehicle's age, averaging roughly 8,563 miles per year. Between the September 7, 2021, test and the September 26, 2022, test, the odometer increased from 183,900 to 188,396 miles. This indicates a period of regular use followed by a complete absence of recorded mileage or testing for the last 45 months, suggesting the vehicle may have been stationary for a significant duration. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of all critical mechanical systems. Long periods of inactivity often lead to seized brake calipers, perished tyres, and degraded battery health. Given the age of this Astravan, particular attention should be paid to structural corrosion on the sills and chassis, as well as the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs. The lack of specific defect data in the provided records is unusual for a vehicle of this age and mileage. A professional should verify the integrity of the exhaust system and check for oil leaks from the engine and gearbox. The failure in September 2022 without listed defects suggests a potential administrative error or a failure on a primary safety component that was not detailed in the summary.
